Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Dear [Supervisor's Name], I am writing to formally request maternity leave as I am expecting the birth of my child in the coming weeks. I believe it is important to inform you in advance, so that appropriate arrangements can be made to ensure a smooth transition during my absence. As per company policy and in accordance with California state law, I am eligible for up to 12 weeks of unpaid maternity leave. During this period, I would like to take advantage of the benefits provided by the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) to bond with my newborn and ensure their well-being. I also intend to fully comply with the California Family Rights Act (CFA) if applicable. I plan to commence my maternity leave on [desired start date], which aligns with my current physician's estimated due date. Taking into account my anticipated recovery time, I expect to return to work on [planned return date]. However, please note that this timeline may be subject to change based on my recovery progress and my child's needs. In my absence, I am confident that my team will continue to excel in their assigned tasks and responsibilities. To facilitate a smooth transition, I have prepared comprehensive documentation outlining all ongoing projects, their current status, and any pending actions required. Additionally, I have identified capable colleagues who can serve as points of contact for any urgent matters that may arise during my leave. Regarding any necessary leave paperwork, I have attached the completed maternity leave request form as required by our company's HR department. I kindly request you to review the document and provide your approval at your earliest convenience. If further documentation or clarification is needed, please let me know, and I will promptly address any requests. Furthermore, I would appreciate any guidance or resources you can provide to ensure a successful leave of absence. It would be beneficial to understand if there are any company-specific policies or procedures I should be aware of, especially regarding benefits continuation or time off tracking. I fully understand the importance of maintaining open lines of communication during my maternity leave and assure you that I will be reachable via email should any critical matters arise that require my attention or input. Rest assured, I will strive to respond promptly but request your understanding and consideration during this precious time as I prioritize the needs of my growing family. Thank you for your understanding, support, and consideration throughout this transitional phase. I look forward to returning to work after my maternity leave, refreshed and ready to contribute to the success of our team and the company as a whole. Warm Regards, [Your Name] [Job Title]
